Filling dropdownlist from two sources - XML & webservice

[Dotnetdev]

Hi Friends,

Please need your help in solving this issue.

I have a dropdown list which is connected to an XML file and it has another
connection(secondary datasource) which actually have the data is a web
service.

My connection names are "MainDS" - connection to xml file & secDS -
connection to web service.

I need to fill the drop down list. I tried this code. I get Null reference
error.

XPathNavigator mainnav = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator();
XPathNavigator myname1 =

mainnav.SelectSingleNode(""dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/s0:GetUserCollectionFromSiteREsponse/s0:GEtUserCollectionFromSiteResult/s0:GetUserCollectionFromSite/s0:Users/s0:User", NamspaceManager);
//XPathNavigator myname1 =
mainnav.SelectSingleNode("/my:myfields/my:myField1", NamspaceManager);

XPathNavigator secds = this.DataSources["Users"].CreateNavigator();
XPathnavigator myname2 =

secds.SelectSingleNode("dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/s0:GetUserCollectionFromSiteREsponse/s0:GEtUserCollectionFromSiteResult/s0:GetUserCollectionFromSite);

myname1.InnerXML = myname2.InnerXML();

where dfs:...... is XPath of the corresponding datasources.

I got a NullReference error. Please help me. I'm in urgent need of it.
Note: Even tried the commented code instead of the code above that. Even
that returned null reference.

Please help
Thanks in advance

Hi

In the InfoPath 2007 managed object model, you can reference the XML for a
secondary data source from the form code-behind using the syntax:

XPathNavigator node = this.DataSources["MainDS"].CreateNavigator();

For the main data source, use:

XPathNavigator node = this.MainDataSource.CreateNavigator();

The XPathNavigator instance is initially positioned to the document-level
node in the data source XML.

And ‘dfs’ is namespace prefix.

Hi,

i tried the following code: I'm i right. I got the same error.

XPathNavigator mainnav = this.MainDataSource.CreateNavigator();
XPathNavigator myname1 =
mainnav.SelectSingleNode(""dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/s0:GetUserCollectionFromSiteREsponse/s0:GEtUserCollectionFromSiteResult/s0:GetUserCollectionFromSite/s0:Users/s0:User", NamspaceManager);
XPathNavigator secds = this.DataSources["Users"].CreateNavigator();
XPathnavigator myname2 =
secds.SelectSingleNode("dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/s0:GetUserCollectionFromSiteREsponse/s0:GEtUserCollectionFromSiteResult/s0:GetUserCollectionFromSite);
myname1.InnerXML = myname2.InnerXML();

Still I'm getting the null reference error. It says in the last line of
code(myname1.InnerXML = myname2.InnerXML() - object reference not set to an
instance of an object.

Please help
Thanks
